Help :) Can someone please tell me how to change the dpi setting on my camera {it needs to be set on 300dpi}.....I can't find my manual and I'm taking pics for a magazine. Thanks! My camera is a Canon Pwershot sx100 Tiffany

Hey TiffanyJane,\015\012 There is no way to change the dpi on a digital camera. What you need to do is set the camera to its highest resolution which is 3264x2448 pixels, and this is referred to as large in your camer ...

How do you change the dpi on a Canon PowerShot SX30 IS? I need to change it from 170dpi to 300dpi.

Selective uploading So, i had no trouble uploading ANY of the pictures or videos from the camera to my laptop EXCEPT the two videos i need. they are larger than the others, and when i try to upload them onto my computer, they're both listed as taking up 0 mb of memory, and no program on my computer will open them. i can still play them without problem on the camera itself.

300 dpi I have a Canon Powershot SX200 IS digital camera. Can this camera take 300dpi shots? I have changed settings and only seem to be able to get 180dpi?

Blurry Images i have recently purchased an Olympus C-700 Ultra Zoom, and i love it...but i need some help. when i'm taking pictures outside, at night, like...let's say at the moon, it's blurry. and when i take pictures, like at a concert, where flash is not allowed, it's also blurry. is there something i can do to change the shutter speed to where it will take crisper, cleaner pictures, or what needs to be done???
also, i just ordered a telephoto lens and a wide angle lens. what are these goo

If there's not enough light your camera can't invent any. Well, normally it can, which is what a flash does, but as you've said, no flash allowed.\015\012\015\012Your photos are blury because you're not mounting the camera on a tripod or you are usin ...

Continuous shooting I'm new to this so bare with me. I just got my Nikon D60 and I want to shoot pictures in continuous mode. I set it on manual, go into the menu and change it to continuous. I rotate the dial so it changes the shutter speed but when I take pictures it's just a black screen. As a matter of fact any time I try to take a picture in M it's just black. I'm hoping that there is just a setting I need to change and there's not something wrong with my camera. Thanks.

Hey man. Im not sure how new you are but basically i think your problem is you need to decrease the shutter speed to around 1/200-1/250 of a second and increase the apeture to around f10/12 and see if that works. If your operating at a high shutter s ...

Button-be-dead Ok, so this might sound kind of stupid but my camera was in my purse and I didn't drop it or anything, but when I went to take it out to take pictures, the button you push to take the picture was already half down so it won't stop auto-focusing. I can't zoom in or out, look through my pictures, turn the flash off, delete pictures, or change picture styles. I know it's because of the button already being down halfway but I really need to know how to fix it and get the button back

Thanks for posting this article as I had no idea of the cause and was suspecting a firmware/software fault.\015\012\015\012I had the same problem a few days ago. As my camera was out of warranty and the advice from a salesperson in a well known chain ...

DPI resolution My pictures are always set at 72 dpi no matter what image setting I use. I have friends with much lesser cameras that take better pictures and their dpi settings range from 230 to 300. HOw can I change this setting?

The mode dial doesn't seem to work. The camera is stuck on the high speed sequential setting. When we select iauto, it takes one picture and then freezes. When we select the camera option on the mode dial, it takes 13-15 pictures in succession and then freezes. The pictures are taken without the button being pressed. We need to power off to change modes. The camera did work for a little while.

Base from the description of your problem what we can do here first to correct the problem is to reset or restore the camera settings to its default from the camera MENU. Then once you done that check if its working fine now. ...

Camera worked fine but it needed new batteries. Changed them and now the flash is weak and it won't take the picture. Only seems to click part way through the cycle of taking the picture.

Please take out the batteries, test them for full power and put in when you are sure they are good. Make sure the positive & negative ends of the batteries are in the proper position. Also make certain that the batteries are good quality and the ...

Dark photos I am a new Nikon user and have the D80. This is way more camera than I will ever need. I can not take pictures without them being dark not even in the auto mode. This is inside or outside I have two lenses and have switched them and it's still dark. I was able to change the exposer to get them lighter but would think you could take pictures in auto that would be fine.

To "up the exposure a bit" you need to dial in positive exposure compensation. Since you didn't specify what model camera you have, I can't give you specific instructions on how to do that.To reduce digital noise ("grain"), put more light ...

Hi Experts,
I bought an Olympus C170 camera 6 years before. It was good... recently due to some problem Technicians changed Lens in my camera.. Now the problem is I feel some delay time while I am shooting.. I am not able to grab the scene which I suppose to take. Once I pressed click button.. it takes some time to get flash/photo. Please clarify what would be the reason... Is there any setting needs to be done in my camera .. or its a camera issue.

When taking a picture, you must press the shutter button half-way and allow the camera to lock in the focus (it will beep) and then press the rest of the way when the moment is right for an instant picture. Is that what you do? ...

My Fuji E500 Camera was working great until about a month ago and now it will not take photos. When I turn the camera on I can see the picture in the view screen.

I have changed the batteries several times.Kind regardsPeter

Hi,the problem is not related to the batteries, your camera needs service. Turning off when the button is pressed can be set of different internal / hardware issues that we can't test over the internet.The camera will need to ...

When I first bought the camera five years ago. it would take 8 to 10 pictures before batteries needed changed. This kept decreasing over time to 8 pictures maximum, then six pictures, then four pictures. Now I only get 1, sometimes 2, and occasionally 3 pictures before a battery change. Is there an internal problem with the camera? Can it be fixed?
